Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

Bai Zhende looked at the "sister" in front of her who was actually nothing like her.

She wanted to say that she was here to purify the evil, but when she really arrived in front of Black Joan of Arc and saw her sweating profusely while directing the construction workers to build the city, she really couldn't open her mouth.

She wanted to say that she came to rescue the master who was controlled by the evil witch, but when she saw the orange-haired girl next to her who was eating chips and drinking drinks with Shirataki, looking as leisurely as if she was on vacation, she knew that her reason was untenable.

Then what else could she be here for?

"I'm here..."

Bai Zhende was still hesitating, not knowing what to say.

But Black Jeanne didn't want to listen to her anymore.

"Forget it, you'd better stop talking."

"The fact that I see you is already annoying me. I don't want to hear your nonsense that makes me angry."

"Go ahead and do whatever you want, don't bother me!"

Black Joan of Arc waved her hand and drove White Joan of Arc away.

Of course, it’s not about driving them out of the city, but driving them away from me.

Now she is busy with the construction of this city - she must build a good city and a good country.

She doesn't care about other things now.

As for Bai Zhende, she gave her the greatest degree of freedom, allowing her to wander around the city and collect all the information she wanted.

——There’s nothing to hide anyway.

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu were there, and if she could take them away, Jeanne d'Arc would never stop her. Because Jeanne d'Arc never considered the two saviors from the future as "her own" - she kept them here just to let them witness this country she created with her own hands, this "miracle" she created with her own hands.

"My time is running out."

"So, we have to go faster, faster."

Looking at the back of White Jeanne d'Arc as she left, Black Jeanne d'Arc stroked her heart with her hand.

——She actually knows her own situation best.

The witch born from destruction is destined to face destruction.

This is her fate that she cannot defy.

But at least... before that fateful moment arrives, please let her see the completion of this city with her own eyes.

"God——"

She closed her eyes.

I began to pray the most devout prayer I had ever prayed before:

"Please grant me joy."

……

Bai Zhende stayed in this city.

——There was no way, the mission was not completed and she couldn’t go back.

Although she tried her best to persuade her, the orange-haired girl's heart was as heavy as a weight, and she didn't waver at all.

"Go back? Why should I go back with you?"

“Is my life here bad?”

Ritsuka Fujimaru introduces her "luxury guard corps" to Jeanne d'Arc.

Putting aside other things, these dragon servants were very attractive in appearance. Handsome men and beautiful women were just their standard features. Most importantly, they were truly loyal and would not disobey their superiors' orders in the slightest.

Absolute obedience to parents - this is the absolute rule of vampires.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka is not a dragon, because of her identity as the savior, Black Jeanne d'Arc specially arranged a team of 20 guards for her to take care of her daily life.

The life she lived here was one that high school students couldn't even imagine.

As for the salvation that Bai Zhende mentioned?

"Forget it. The world has already become like this. There's no need to rush."

Ritsuka Fujimaru declined Bai Zhende's invitation in a very calm tone.

The Savior is well aware of the responsibilities she shoulders - but at the same time, she trusts her intuition more.

After such a long period of contact, she found that the woman named [Joan of Arc Alter] was not as evil as she had imagined, and was not someone who wanted to destroy the world at all.

She is actually more like a talkative person.

What came out of her mouth and what she actually did were completely different things.

“She knows what’s right.”

"She'll make the right choice."

At such a critical moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka also decided to completely hand over the power of choice to Black Jeanne d'Arc.

——At this moment, Bai Zhende was thinking about something else.

"What she said and what she actually did were completely different things?"

"Then what she said to me before, 'The very fact of seeing you already makes me feel disgusted', doesn't that mean..."

Think of this.

A smile appeared on Bai Zhende's face, which originally showed some distress.

——Ah, as expected.

——At the moment they actually met, they should have felt the same way.

——She should be very happy too, right?

Chapter 104: How bad can she be?

Joan of Arc settled down in this city.

This sounds like an incredible thing. At the beginning, even Bai Zhende herself could not believe that her family could be integrated so smoothly into this "evil" city whose existence itself was completely "blasphemous".

However, when she actually settled down in this city, she found that things were not as bad as she had imagined.

"Mrs. Jeanne, good morning."

Mashu Kyrielight, a girl who looked soft and sweet. Somehow, Jeanne could sense a very friendly aura from her, as if they were close comrades belonging to the same camp - but after careful perception, she found that she seemed to have recognized the wrong person.

"Morning, Mash."

"What's for breakfast today?"

"A few pieces of bread, a plate of grilled sausages, and a bowl of thick tomato soup."

Among the "idlers" in this city, Joan of Arc and Mash are among those who get up early, and they are also close "dinner partners".

"But what's with all this food?"

Bai Zhende looked at the waiters pushing food carts and moving back and forth in the corridor with a puzzled look.

It was a rich feast, and it seemed to come from different eras—barbecues and wine from this era, as well as potato chips, chocolate, soda, and other snacks from fifteen hundred years from now.

"Ah, those things."

"It's a tribute to the gods, hoping they will always bless Chaldea—that's what the doctor said."

Mashu imitated Dr. Roman's tone, with a smile that was both pious and flattering on her face.

Bai Zhende, who seemed to have heard some extraordinary words, was suddenly startled and didn't even notice that the spoon had fallen into the soup bowl.

"what?"

"God?!"

……

In the morning, I had breakfast.

Bai Zhende approached Shirataki's room with a nervous mood.

The task that Altria had given her emerged in her mind - to establish a good relationship with the white dragon.

But is this possible?

As the Messianic saint, could she possibly have a good relationship with another god?

The answer is of course.

"Ah, no need to worry."

"I know you exist, and I know that god exists."

"That god may indeed be the only supreme being in the world."

Looking at Bai Zhende, whose face was clearly nervous, as if she was worried about whether she had broken some grave sin, Bai Long not only invited her in with a cheerful tone, but also shared the food on the table with her.

He could understand Joan of Arc's concerns.

In the faith of the Cathedral Church, the Trinity of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is the supreme and only God.

The church denies the existence of other gods and believes that other gods are "false gods."

But what does it matter? The truth or falsehood of gods never needs to be defined by humans.

Moreover, if we look at it from a factual perspective, perhaps that god really is "the only one in this world."

——After all, other gods are only responsible for protecting the people of a country or region, but the root of that god is "saving all mankind."

If He can really do that, there is nothing wrong in acknowledging that He is the only one in this world.

"Besides, I'm no longer a god."

Shirataki spoke frankly about his situation.

The King of the End of the Age of Gods brandished a pillar of light that pierced heaven and earth, severing his divine wings and untying the shackles of "divinity" that bound him.

From that moment on, he gained true freedom.

——Does anyone really think that becoming a god is a good thing?

——Being a god who works so hard to protect humans...how can it be better than being a dragon and happily eating potato chips here?

"Oh, well, it seems you're not used to communicating directly with a dragon."

"Hmm...how about this? This is the first time I've become a human since then. I hope it doesn't scare you."

……

Shirataki returned to his human form.

——He still looks like the same boy as before, but he is a little bigger and taller than the little guy at the beginning who still has some baby fat on his face.

Judging from his appearance, he is about sixteen or seventeen years old.

He is not an adult, but we can never treat him as a "child" again.

"Didn't Artoria ask you to come?"

"That's just the way she is. She always seems to be focusing on things that are absolutely nothing for her to worry about."

From the moment Jeanne d'Arc entered this room, no, from the moment she entered this city, Shirataki accurately perceived Altria's "purpose".

Isn't it just to let him see what the real "Joan of Arc" should look like?

—Pure, steadfast, beautiful, kind... Should we say she is worthy of being one of the most famous saints in later generations? No wonder even someone as picky as Sister Daimao is so positive about her.

But even though she is such a perfect existence, like a work of art, Shirataki has no feelings for her.

He could sense that this perfect saint must have her true side, but she hid it well—when she came into this world as Joan of Arc, not Jeanne of Domremy, all worldly matters had nothing to do with her.

In comparison, he still prefers the current Black Jeanne d'Arc.

The Dragon Witch is full of flaws, but she is real enough to make you laugh out loud or cry.

"Then, the former God."

"Can I ask you a question?"
